Bread Proofing Basket, 28cm Oval Natural Rattan Sourdough Proving Basket, Banneton Dough Baking Mold with Cloth Liner 28x15x8cm for Home Bakers Sourdough Starter Kit

I make bread loaves with 500g flour and 70%-80% hydration. A lot of the baskets sold on Amazon are too small for that amount of dough, especially if you accidentally overproof your dough a little. This basket works well. Personally I don't use the liner, I've never really seen the point. To clean between uses, it's easy enough to just scrape out excess flour and it's ready to go again. I like it enough that I bought a second one.

Nice size but… Horrible chemical smell in Ratan. Washed the banneton, then aired it which seemed to take the worst of the smell away but smell is returning. Don’t recommend.

I wasn't so sure if its big enough for 500g sourdough, but i works perfectly fine Recommended

The wood seems treated with something however, as it has unnaturally white layer on top and distinct smell (which isn't natural wood odor). These notes aside, the dimensions are approximately as stated and it can holds a mid-sized loaf of bread. There is a linen liner included (with elastic band and fine stitching), which makes the dough look nicer and saves a ton of cleaning, making sure to prolong the proofing basket's life, although it can be used without it. As I mentioned previously, the colour is pale white and there are visible small staples all over - the basket is sturdy and looks nice too - can be used to serve the bread as well.

Unfortunately I cannot recommend this product as the quality was poor. In two places the wicker was rough and not finished properly.
